A Beetle Story

Yeah I forgot to post about the beetle when I made my post about camp. Alright, so while I was at camp we had small groups and our small group decided to meet down at the pavilion. On the first day there we all sat at the tables in the third row and we talked, so naturally when I was the first person down there for small groups the next day, I sat in the third row. But when people came down they for some unknown reason decided to sit in the second row. So when everyone had come and sat in the second row, I decided to move to the second row to hear better (if your wonder why talking so much about tables and what does this have to do with the aforementioned beetle, I'm getting there.) As I sat down I saw something out of the corner of my eye. I turned my head and there was this giant beetle caught in a spider's web by its back legs (how it got caught by its back legs only, I still don't know.) This was the point at camp when I most wished I had had a camera. It had giant pincers and was thrashing about crazily when I first saw it. I went back later that day and it was barely moving. I went back in the morning and the spider had brought the beetle up in the web. I saw the spider crawling away from the beetle after it had finished its work, and that beetle was at least 10 times as big as the spider.

Anyway, I'll still post an actuall vacation post tonight, but that's the beetle story.
